Challenge #8: A Photo Study

Can you believe we're already into week 8? 11 more weeks until BlogHer! That's still plenty of time to meet our goals before we strut out into the crowd.

This week's challenge is courtesy of Krissie at Questions for Dessert. She came up with a great idea for a themed challenge centering around photography. I'm guessing most bloggers are at least amateur photographers - most of us post photos from time to time. Here are the challenges:

Diet:
For this challenge, choose one day this week and photograph every bite you eat, then blog those photos. (Before you eat it, of course.) You'll not only be hyperaware of food choices due to the accountability of blogging it, but you may be surprised when you see your entire day of food in front of you.

Fitness:
Just like last week, you're going to try a new activity. If you still like the new activity you did last week, keep going with it. Take a photo of something that symbolizes your new activity: the view from the top of the hill in your new walking program, the treadmill readout showing total calories burned, your shadow while doing a yoga pose, etc. Show us your photo when you do your results post at the end of the week.

Personal:
Take a self-portrait. It doesn't have to be a full body photo or even a shot of your face. Some part of yourself must be featured in the photo, preferably some part of you that you like. Blog the photo and tell us about why you selected that particular photo.

A reminder on how to play: choose one challenge from the three listed above, do your best to follow the challenge, and report in at the end of the week. Leave a comment or e-mail me the link to your results post, and I'll link them up in a round-up results post.

Good luck!

I'm gonna do the food one. And maybe the self-portrait too. Thanks for the shoutout!
